Emma’s Flower Truck — Little Blue Truck, Big Blooms in Marietta
That cheerful rumble and little blue ’66 Chevy you’ve seen around? That's Emma’s Flower Truck. Owner Amelia grew up in this very truck—piled in the back with siblings on Halloween, grinding gears while learning to drive the neighborhood loop, grinning at that friendly...

Saint & Goldie: A Marietta Treasure for Thoughtful Gifts and Good Vibes
A Little Shop Where Stories, Scents, and Sweet Finds Fill the Air
Tucked right next to Session Stand Coffee and just steps away from the Marietta Square, Saint & Goldie feels like a little pocket of sunshine waiting to be discovered.
Walking through their doors, you instantly get that warm fuzzy feeling — like you’re visiting your coolest, kindest friend, the one who always knows exactly what to gift, what to wear, and how to make a space feel effortlessly special.
And it’s no accident.
Saint & Goldie is the passion project of two sisters and their best friend — Caroline, Liz, and Bri — who built this shop as an homage to the people who shaped them most: their grandparents, affectionately nicknamed Saint and Goldie.
Their grandfather, the “Saint,” taught them creativity — painting, antiquing, and finding beauty in the small details of life. Their grandmother, Marie Golden, “Goldie,” shared her love of entertaining and hospitality, and inspired the warm, welcoming spirit woven into every corner of their store.
Even the candles they created in collaboration with Minted Market tell a story: the Saint candle captures the warm, earthy scents of their grandfather — rich tobacco, crisp outdoor air, and a strong, comforting memory. The Goldie candle smells like the laundry room of your dreams, fresh and clean, inspired by memories of running through their grandmother’s sun-drenched sheets as children. The heart behind Saint & Goldie is palpable — it’s these little moments, bottled up and shared, that make this shop unlike anywhere else.
A Happy Place (That Happens to Have the Best Gifts)
Inside Saint & Goldie, you’ll find a bright, airy space filled with beautifully curated treasures:
✨ Hand-poured candles
✨ Thoughtful jewelry and accessories
✨ Cozy, stylish homewares
✨ Small-batch, ethically sourced gifts you actually want to give
✨ Smart gifting options that feel personal and meaningful
Everything is stylish yet approachable — a little southern-chic, a little timeless, and a whole lot of heart.
As Caroline sweetly shared,
“Some body referred to us as Anthropologie’s little sister.”
And honestly? It’s spot-on. Saint & Goldie captures that Anthropologie charm — the creativity, the beauty — but with a soulfulness and personal touch that feels even better because the owners are local to Marietta.
Built with Love, Grown with Heart
Saint & Goldie celebrated their first full year in business in January (happy anniversary, ladies! 🥂).
When I sat down with them, what struck me most was how intentional they are — about their growth, their community, and their customers.
They aren’t chasing trends or scaling fast for the sake of it. Every new idea (like someday offering a wedding registry or expanding their home decor) is considered carefully, with heart. Their goal is simple:
→ To stay rooted in community.
→ To offer beautiful, thoughtful pieces.
→ To be a bright spot in Marietta.
And honestly, they’re already doing just that.
Why You’ll Fall in Love, Too
Saint & Goldie isn’t just a store — it’s an experience.
It’s where you’ll find the perfect birthday gift, the hostess gift that gets all the compliments, and the candle you light in the morning just because it makes everything feel better.
Built by three women who believe in slowing down, celebrating everyday beauty, and finding joy in the details — and yes, they’re open on Sundays — for those of us who always need something last-minute but still want it to feel thoughtful.
And honestly? Marietta is lucky to have them. I’m lucky to have them.
Their friendship, their passion, and their shop make our community even brighter.
Next time you’re near the Square, pop into Saint & Goldie — your new favorite gift is already waiting for you. Tell them Merry in Marietta sent you💛.

Let's Get Social
I first moved to Marietta, GA, at the age of nine, and it has held my heart ever since. Today, I am a proud Marietta resident along with my husband, and I still have a passion for helping people to discover, explore, and enjoy our warm and welcoming hometown. My background and professional work in marketing and real estate led me to create Merry in Marietta as a community hub to connect residents, prospective residents, and visitors with all the best that Marietta has to offer. I’m excited to show you around!
